◈ Let’s Talk

ByungYeop:  Hey, let’s grab a beer at the festival.
SangChun:  Sure, the first one’s on me (I’ll buy the first one)
ByungYeop:  Great!
(A couple of hours later after multiple games of 3,6,9 and ‘President’(a popular American drinking game)
SangChun: Wow, you’re really smashed!
ByungYeop: What? I’m, not drunk, I’m just happy.
SangChun: And I’m Santa Claus. (said when the last statement is obviously not true.) Come on, you?e drunk as a skunk.
ByungYeop: Ok, maybe I’m a liiiiiiiiiiiittle tired.  Take me drunk, I’m home. (Take me home, I’m drunk? but slurred speech to do being drunk.)
SangChun:  Hahaha, definitely time to go, before you black out. (Pass out/lose consciousness) I just want to get you home before you hurl. (vomit)  You’re going to have a huge hangover (to feel sick the morning after drinking) tomorrow!
